About Us

Birch Moon Rising is a carefully curated micro-boutique founded in 2021 by Carissa Colosi and her husband Matt Matarazzo, located just blocks from the Salem town line in Peabody, Massachusetts. Born from their shared belief in transformation, healing, and the quiet magic of things once loved, their unique shop combines three distinct specialties: vintage and antique costume jewelry spanning pre-Victorian to modern eras, handcrafted herbal bodycare products, and metaphysical spiritual items. The atmosphere is designed to feel like shopping in an outdoor wooded glen at twilight, creating an enchanting experience where history, healing, and intuition converge in one magical space.
